In this post I will be referencing two pseudonymous works attributed to St. Clement of Rome. Despite the fact that scholars question the authenticity of these writings, they still serve as an early witness, in fact a 2nd–4th century testimony, to the beliefs of the Christians which composed them. These sources show that the author(s) affirmed the essential Deity of Christ, his Incarnation and…

Happy Friday, otaku! Here I come again with another “old school” anime devo, but as Discotek Media says in all their sizzle reels, “Blu-rays are forever.

The letter was written by Eusebius of Caesarea to his congregation, explaining why he and the others fully embraced and consented to the initial creedal formulation of Nicaea. In so doing, Eusebius is shown to be a Trinitarian who did not teach that the Son and the Spirit are creatures which were brought into being from nothing (creatio ex nihilo). All emphasis will be mine.

The following excerpt is taken from St. Augustine’s On the Holy Trinity, Book 4. In it, the blessed saint reasons that the Father’s sending of the Son into the world is a sign and reflection of the Father’s having eternally begotten/generated the Son. Augustine takes this economic procession, e.g., the Father’s sending forth the Son to be born of a woman, as indicative of their eternal…

In this post I will cite from a letter of St. Ignatius, the holy martyr of Christ and the Bishop of Antioch, being an eyewitness and pupil of the holy Apostles, who learned the faith directly from them.

I was raised Catholic, and that’s never been something I could or wanted to shake. Faith was the first language I learned. Before I could read, I knew how to kneel, how to whisper a prayer, how to trace the sign of the cross over my chest. I loved the rhythm of it all — the rise and fall of the hymns, the smell of incense curling through sunlight, the soft echo of the priest’s voice in the…
The following excerpts are from Origen’s Commentary on the Gospel of John. In this section, Origen will argue for the Father being stronger and greater than the Son, and the Spirit owing his existence/essence to the Son, and not just the Father alone. However, Origen makes it clear that he doesn’t mean this in terms of the Son and Spirit being created from nothing or creation, but in respect to…

This excerpt is taken from St. Athanasius who claims that the language adopted by Nicaea to describe the Son’s essential equality with the Father isn’t new but quite ancient, going back to at least 130 years earlier. Athanasius exposed the Arian heretics by appealing to an unbroken chain of Apostolic succession of Bishops to prove that the Church has always taught this truth about the Son.
